Based on the third photo (assuming all are of the same moth) i think its most likely C. glycina (given the prominent balck line along the costa near the base of the forewing. I cannot identify the first two photos, so I would suggest deleting them.

Thank you - they are the same moth. I'll delete the first couple of photos.
